The Parks, Recreation and Community Facilities Department is working with District Representative Newbille to replace the old playground equipment and replace it with brand new equipment. There will be a piece for 2 to 5 year olds as well as a second piece for 6 to 12 year olds. We were hoping to start the installation today, Monday, but to what extent with the weather I do not know. When the weather permits we will install the new equipment and then parks staff will add engineered wood chips and a border. We are hoping that all will be restored within a two period.
